SaskPower rate hikes OK’d for two yearsThe Saskatchewan Rate Re-view Panel has pulled the plug on SaskPower’s plan to raise rates by about five per cent a year for three years.

The panel has approved an average rate increase of 5.5 per cent this year and given conditional approval for a five per cent hike next year.

The panel says there are concerns about SaskPower’s forecasting costs.

The need and timing of new projects has also been called into question and the panel says SaskPower should be clearer about its plans.

The utility usually asks for rate increases one year at a time, but last October ap-plied for the three-year hike, saying it would give custom-ers and the company better ways to budget.

SaskPower has said it

needs the increase to pay for new projects and to keep pace with the province’s growing economy.

“While many of the capital expenditures are justified and necessary to provide a safe and reliable power supply to the prov-ince, the panel agrees with several customers who ex-pressed concern about Sask-Power’s forecasting costs over a multi-year period,” chairwoman Kathy Weber said in a news release Mon-day.

“A more transparent pro-cess will assist in educating the general public and the stakeholders, and will pro-vide the panel with the in-formation needed to make recommendations on future rate increases.” THE CANADIAN PRESS

Saskatchewan RCMP re-sponded to more than 25 calls on roads across the province on Monday as snowy conditions made for a dangerous morning com-mute.

Officers say it’s unusual to see so many collisions so close together, explaining accidents may be rooted in

drivers being unprepared for winter conditions in early spring.

“Everybody has that bug to kind of look forward to-wards the warm weather,” Sgt. Craig Cleary of the RCMP said on Monday.

“People do have a ten-dency to switch out their winter tires or kind of get

into that spring/summer mode and unfortunately, we may be seeing some of the ef-fects of that today.”

Main incidents involved a jackknifed semi blocking larger traffic on Highway 11 near Craik and a head-on collision at the junction of Highway 47 and 361 near Es-tevan, which sent a 35-year-

old woman to hospital as a precautionary measure.

Police in the province’s major urban centres say they were called to collisions as a result of the snow, but said no injuries were reported.

Elizabeth Popowich with the Regina Police Service said officers responded to nine collisions between 8

p.m. Sunday and noon Mon-day.

“We’ve had more than the usual number of collisions reported,” she said. “But it’s kind of unusual weather.”

Long-serving deputy premier and Finance Minister Ken Kra-wetz wiped a tear from his eye Monday after announcing that he won’t run again in the next Saskatchewan election.

Krawetz, whose voice often boomed above others in the legislature, says retiring was a hard decision.

“My wife and I and family started talking about this a year ago and saying should we look at another four-year term start-ing in 2016. And for me, again with being as lucky as I am with my cardiac situation, I just want to move on to enjoying family,” Krawetz said Monday at the legislature.

Since 1989, Krawetz says he has had four angioplasties and had triple heart bypass surgery in April 2000.

Krawetz was first elected as the MLA for Canora-Pelly in 1995 as a Liberal.

But Krawetz changed the

political landscape in 1997 when he joined three other Liberals and four Progressive Conservatives to form the Sas-katchewan Party in 1997. He was leader of the Opposition until 1999.

The former teacher and school board official was named deputy premier and Education minister when the Saskatchewan Party won the 2007 election. He became fi-nance minister in 2010.

Krawetz says one of his proudest moments was win-ning that first election in 1995.

“I was not supposed to win. I did not receive a lot of support from the provincial organiza-tion at that time, but I was just told to do the best I could ... and I won that seat by 50 votes,” he recalled.

Premier Brad Wall says Kra-wetz has been a pillar of the Saskatchewan Party and is “im-possible to replace.”

“But, you know, we talked about this, Ken and I did, and I knew that he’d been talking with (his wife) Gail for some time, for the last year or so and he’s made his final decision now,” Wall said.THE CANADIAN PRESS

Saskatchewan Research Council unveils innovative biodigester

Saskatchewan Research Council president and CEO Dr. Laurier Schramm joins other government officials in cutting the ribbon to officially unveil the biodigester at the Canada Agriculture and Food Museum Monday in Ottawa. Inset: The Saskatchewan Research Council’s biodigester with its bladder full of bio-gas. contributed; inset: tom Alfoldi/contributed

It’s a made-in-Saskatchewan product showcasing how in-novation can alleviate one of agriculture’s biggest woes.

And it might just prompt a radical rethink of how farm-ers see the messes left behind by their livestock.

Bioprocessing and energy specialists at the Saskatch-ewan Research Council (SRC) have built a functioning bio-digester, which breaks down and converts animal waste into energy.

“It’s an environmentally friendly piece of equipment,” Erin Taman Athmer, SRC’s

communications manager told Metro.

“It can help (farmers) re-duce their energy footprint on their farm.”

The small-scale machine, built in the spring of 2013, has been sent to the Can-ada Agriculture and Food Museum (CAFM) in Ottawa, where it was unveiled in a special ceremony on Monday.

The biodigester works when farm manure is loaded into its tank, where microor-ganisms ingest it and produce methane gas.

The methane is collected at the top of the tank before it is moved into the bag-like bladder section of the device.

Once full, the bladder re-leases the methane, which

is then utilized as an energy source.

The leftover waste —known as digestate — can be collected and used as fertil-izer.

While some biodigesters may produce a noxious scent, Taman Athmer notes that the SRC’s model has a filter to remove the odour-producing element from the methane gas.

The SRC’s unit, which took approximately five months to build, will be featured at the museum as an example of how ingenuity in the agri-culture field can transform something seen as a major nuisance into a much-needed power source.

“Here at CAFM, we are proud to showcase the vari-ous aspects of energy science and innovation in the agricul-tural sector,” Fernand Proulx, acting president and CEO of the Canada Science and Technology Museums Cor-poration, said in a prepared statement.

Man charged in alleged drive-by murder attemptPolice in Regina have charged a 20-year-old man with at-tempted murder and a fire-arms-related offence in con-nection to a suspected drive-by shooting Friday evening that sent a teenager to the hospital with serious injuries.

Kenyon Ralph Kay, of no fixed address, faces one count of attempted murder and one

count of possession of a firearm contrary to prohibition.

According to city police, a 19-year-old man was walking westbound on the north side-walk of Fourth Avenue, west of Athol Street, at approximately 8 p.m. Friday when a vehicle stopped in front of him. The suspect allegedly exited the vehicle and shot the victim

before returning to the vehicle and fleeing the scene.

After receiving a call about a person being shot and arriv-ing in the area, police located the victim nursing an appar-ent gunshot wound in his ab-domen area.

“The (wounded) male … was taken to hospital,” Staff Sgt. Evan Bray told Metro on Sun-

day. “At first, he was classified as (being in) serious condition but has been upgraded now. They are calling it a non-life-threatening injury (and) expect a full recovery.”

During the subsequent in-vestigation, police say they lo-cated and seized the weapon. Kay was arrested and charged on Saturday.

“Police are continuing to investigate all aspects of this case, including the possibility that this may be gang-related,” Elizabeth Popowich, police spokeswoman, said in an email message. “Further charges are anticipated.”

Kay made his first appear-ance in court on the charges Monday morning. MetRo

Emergency officials searched for survivors Monday in debris left by a powerful tornado that killed at least 14 in Arkansas and carved a 130-kilometre path of de-struction through suburban Little Rock.

The tornado that slammed into Vilonia, just north of the state’s capital city, grew to about a kilometre wide Sunday and was among a rash of tornadoes and strong storms that rumbled across the Midwest and South.

It may be rated the na-tion’s strongest this year, at least an EF3, with winds

greater than 218 km/h, ac-cording to the National Weather Service. By com-parison, the strongest pos-sible tornado rates an EF5.

“We don’t have a count on injuries or missing. We’re trying to get a handle on the missing part,” said Arkansas Gov. Mike Beebe on Monday. “Just looking at the dam-age, this may be one of the strongest we have seen.”

An earlier toll of 16 was changed to 14 after it was clear that two victims were counted twice, Arkansas gov-ernor’s aide Matt DeCample said, though he expects the overall death toll to rise.

Brandon Morris, spokes-man for the Arkansas De-partment of Emergency Management, said crews were sifting through the rubble in the hope of uncov-ering survivors and to assess the damage. the AssociAted Press

Operators scan the altar at the Convent of the Barefoot Trinitarians in Madrid’s historic Barrio de las Letras, or Literary Quarter. Paul White/the associated Press

Team searches for remains of Spanish authorMiguel de Cervantes, Spain’s greatest writer, was a soldier of little fortune. He died penni-less in Madrid, his body riddled with bullets. His burial place was a tiny convent church no larger than the entrance hall of an average house.

No more was heard of the 16th-century author until the rediscovery of a novel featuring an eccentric character called Don Quixote rescued him from oblivion. Four centuries later,

Spain intends to do the great man justice.

A team that will search for Cervantes’ remains began ex-ploratory work Monday and final conclusions will be known by the year’s end. The esti-mated cost of the operation is $138,000 US.

Cervantes lived in a neigh-bourhood of narrow streets, small houses and taverns full of artists and hustlers. He was bur-ied in 1616 on his death at the

age of 68. Years later the chapel was expanded to its current —still modest — proportions.

According to Fernando Prado, the historian in charge of the project, just five people, including a child and Cervan-tes, are buried there.

The first phase will consist of exploration using radar. Ex-cavation will begin if bones are detected. Then the investiga-tion turns to forensic anthro-pologist Francisco Etxeberria.

Forensic identification will be the last part of the process. Any bones found may have been mixed up.

Prado said that with no liv-ing Cervantes descendants, DNA analysis is unlikely to lead anywhere.

The investigation will refer to the author’s portraits and his own stories, in which he relates that shortly before dying he had only six teeth. The ASSociATed PreSS

U.S. aid

Audit: Haiti mission behind scheduleA U.S. government audit of Haiti health-care projects financed by Washington has found many of them to be significantly behind schedule.

The projects aimed to improve the health and nutri-tion of Haitians in the after-math of the 2010 earthquake. This meant reinforcing the physical infrastructure of sev-eral health facilities, building three medical supply ware-houses, and rebuilding a state university teaching hospital and a separate campus.

Instead, the audit by the U.S. Agency for International Development’s inspector general found “limited progress,” citing a delay in the construction of the health facilities.

USAID officials say they welcome such reports because they show where improvement is needed.

The audit attributed the delays to several factors, in-cluding a dearth of qualified personnel and the vacancy of a mission director for 13 months.

The Haiti mission also struggled to attract qualified USAID engineers. The ASSociATed PreSS

ohio to increase lethal injection dosage after previous executionOhio said Monday it’s boosting the dosages of its lethal injec-tion drugs even as it stands by the January execution of an in-mate who made unusual snort-ing and gasping sounds that led to a civil rights lawsuit by his family and calls for a morator-ium.

The state’s new policy con-siderably increases the amount of the sedative used in its two-drug combination and raises the amount of the painkiller, both of which are injected

simultaneously, according to a court filing. The state said it was making the changes “to allay any remaining concerns” after the last execution.

The Department of Rehabili-tation and Correction said its review of the Jan. 16 execution of Dennis McGuire determined he was asleep and unconscious a few minutes after the drugs were administered.

“He did not experience pain, distress or air hunger after the drugs were administered or

when the bodily movements and sounds occurred,” the state said. “Therefore, his execution was conducted in a constitu-tional manner consistent with the policy.”

The long and fitful execu-tion of McGuire with a then-untested combination of chem-icals brought cries of cruel and unusual punishment.

A gasping, snorting McGuire took 26 minutes to die after the chemicals began flowing. McGuire’s adult children com-

plained it amounted to torture, with the convicted killer’s son saying: “Nobody deserves to go through that.”

States are in a bind for two main reasons: European com-panies have cut off supplies of certain execution drugs be-cause of opposition to capital punishment in Europe.

And states can’t simply switch to other chemicals with-out triggering legal challenges from defence attorneys. The ASSociATed PreSS


The Somali mother’s home is a frame of sticks covered by ragged blankets on the dusty grounds of this refugee camp. It was here that her 15-year-old son wanted to travel on an im-possible journey as a stowaway on a plane from California.

Ubah Mohammed Abdule hasn’t seen her boy — who was hospitalized in Hawaii after landing there in the wheel well of a jetliner — for eight long years.

Wearing a black and white head covering, Abdule wept as she stood before the flimsy shelter holding her meagre possessions and spoke about her son.

She told journalists from The Associated Press, who travelled to see her in remote eastern Ethiopia, that she was alarmed by the dangerous

method of travel her son under-took. Those who stow away in wheel wells of airplanes have little chance of surviving, and many who attempt it are Afri-cans desperate for a better life in Europe or America.

But Yahya Abdi had been unhappy in California and des-perately missed his mother, ac-cording to those who know his family.

So on April 20, Abdi hopped a fence at San Jose Internation-al Airport and climbed into the wheel well of a jetliner. It was bound for Hawaii, the opposite direction of Ethiopia. Some-how he survived the sub-zero temperatures and lack of oxy-gen. He has not spoken pub-licly about the ordeal.

“I knew he was an intel-ligent boy who has strong af-fections for me. I also knew he always wanted to see me, but I know his father won’t let them contact me at all,” Abdule said.

Abdule said she has not spoken with her son since he moved to the U.S. in 2006. The boy’s father has lied to their three children, the mother said, telling them that she’s dead.

“The father of Yahya first took the children away from me to Sudan. Then he came back to Somalia and demanded my consent for him to take the children to the U.S. if I want a formal divorce. I was not OK with that and said no,” Abdule

said through tears. “Finally, he took all three of

my children to the U.S. without my knowledge.”

Abdule said she wants to leave the camp and reunite with her children and has asked the Ethiopian government and

the UN refugee agency to help her do so. She has passed her first interview with the agency to make the list of those who might qualify to immigrate to America, said a legal protection officer at the refugee camp.THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

A woman mourns after a judge in Egypt sentenced to death 683 alleged supporters of the country’s ousted Islamist president in the latest mass trialin the southern city of Minya, Egypt, Monday. thE associatEd prEss

Muslim Brotherhood leader sentenced to deathAn Egyptian judge sentenced to death the Muslim Brother-hood’s spiritual leader and 682 other people Monday in the latest in a series of high-stakes mass trials that have been un-precedented in scope, draw-ing sharp condemnation from international rights groups.

The verdicts — which were appealed by the general prosecutor — come as the military-backed government has launched a massive crack-down against Islamist support-ers of ousted leader Moham-med Morsi, under the banner of “war against terrorism”

while tightening its grip on the Arab world’s most popu-lous nation.

Suggesting there might be room for reversal, the same judge also reduced the sen-tences against 529 defendants indicted in a similar case in March, upholding the death penalty for only 37 and com-muting the rest to life im-prisonment.

Still, the three dozen death sentences that were upheld was an extraordinarily high number for Egypt, compared to the dramatic trial in the wake of the 1981 assassina-

tion of President Anwar Sadat, when only five people were sentenced to death and exe-cuted.

Judge Said Youssef said he was referring Monday’s death sentences — which were for convictions of violence and killing policemen — to the Grand Mufti, the nation’s top Islamic official — a require-ment under Egyptian law that is usually considered a formal-ity but also gives room for the judge to change his mind.

Railway crossing safety

Transport Canada spending $9.2MThe federal government says it will spend $9.2 million this year to improve safety at railway crossings.

The money is being made available as part of a cost-sharing agreement with railways and governments

that have authority over local roads. Transport Canada says the improvements could include installing flashing lights and bells, gate bar-riers and other devices. The Transportation Safety Board has said there have been 658 accidents over the last 10 years at so-called passive railway crossings, including 59 deaths and 107 serious injuries. THE CANADIAN PRESS

Snake trouble

Austrian stumbles onto large pythonAustrian police are look-ing for the owner of a large python — and the driver who found it may think twice before picking the next spot to stretch his legs.

Police said Monday they

The snake was found late last week. A pet shop has volunteered to tem-porarily care for it while police look for its owner. THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Rape case. Paris police boss wants accused officers off the forceThe director of the Paris police service says he wants the of-ficers implicated in the alleged rape of a Canadian woman out of his department.

Bernard Petit’s remarks Monday to French radio station Europe1 came as authorities investigated two officers accused of raping the Canadian tourist at the city’s police headquarters.

Both officers from the elite police unit, as well as a third who’s considered a witness, have been suspended pending the outcome of an investiga-tion that could take weeks or even months to complete.

French media have re-ported a 34-year-old Toronto woman met the off-duty of-ficers in a bar last week and later went with them to their workplace.

As she left the station, she reportedly told another police officer she’d been raped, but a lawyer for one of the suspects told The Canadian Press the sex was consensual.

The police director told the radio station Monday he would not discuss the criminal allegations, but he called the behaviour of the officers from the noted anti-gang unit “absolutely unacceptable and intolerable.”

“From an administrative point of view, things are clear in our minds,” said Petit, who also noted they should have never have let someone from the outside into the headquar-ters. “These boys no longer have a place within our unit.”

French Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve announced over the weekend the officers had been removed from their posts during the investigation.

He also said a disciplinary inquiry within the force is already underway. THE CANADIAN PRESS

The mayor of Ukraine’s second-largest city of Kharkiv, a hub of 1.5 million people, was shot in the back Mon-day and hundreds of men at-tacked a peaceful pro-Ukraine rally with batons, bricks and stun grenades, wounding dozens as tensions soared in Ukraine’s volatile east.

In the eastern city of Don-etsk, about 1,000 demonstra-tors carrying Ukrainian flags marched through the streets to hold a pro-Ukrainian rally

Monday night. They were at-tacked by several hundred armed men shouting “Rus-sia!” Police attempted to hold the pro-Russia men back, but then stood aside as dozens of protesters were battered.

Hennady Kernes, the may-or of Kharkiv, was shot in the back Monday morning while cycling on the outskirts of the city, his office said. He under-went surgery and was re-ported by the hospital to be in “grave but stable” condition.

Kernes’ friend and former Kharkiv governor Mykhailo Dobkin told journalists the at-tackers had aimed at Kernes’ heart and wanted to kill him to destabilize the city

Elsewhere in the east, pro-Russia militants wearing masks gained another foot-hold, seizing a city hall build-ing and police station in the city of Kostyantynivka, 160 kilometres from the Russian border. THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

New sanctions

Canada, U.S. target Putin’s inner circleCanada is following the United States in once again stepping up the pressure on Moscow over the crisis in Ukraine. Prime Minister Stephen Harper says two Russian companies and nine individuals will face new sanctions.

And he suggests more economic sanctions could be on the way unless Rus-sian President Vladimir Putin follows through on an April 17 agreement that was designed to ease ten-sions in Ukraine.

A half-dozen CF-18 fighter jets are also sched-

uled to depart Tuesday to assist NATO operations in eastern Europe.

Earlier Monday, the U.S. imposed sanctions on seven Russian government officials and 17 compan-ies linked to Putin. It also revoked licences for some high-tech products used by Russia’s military.

The new sanctions were milder than many in Moscow had feared. They did not affect any public companies or major sectors of the economy.

The European Union meanwhile slapped visa bans and asset freezes on 15 individuals alleged to be involved with stoking in-stability in eastern Ukraine.THE CANADIAN PRESS, wITH fIlES fROM THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NBA. Advertisers drop L.A. Clippers from roster amid racism controversyAdvertisers are backing away from the Los Angeles Clippers after racist comments attrib-uted to the NBA team’s owner.

Used car dealership chain CarMax, airline Virgin Amer-ica, and the Chumash Casino Resort said Monday that they are ending their sponsorships of the Clippers in the wake of comments allegedly made by the team’s owner, Donald Ster-ling.

Two other sponsors, Kia Motors America and Red Bull, said they are suspending their advertising and sponsorship ac-tivities with the team. Another

sponsor, insurer State Farm, said it “will be taking a pause in our relationship with the or-ganization.” THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

First Nations leaders call for end to aboriginal education bill

The national chief of the Assembly of First Nations finds himself in the difficult spot of supporting a Harper government bill that one of his chief political rivals described Monday as an af-

front to Canada’s aboriginal community.

Shawn Atleo has publicly backed Bill C-33, the so-called First Nations Control of First Nations Education Act, calling it a step toward long-standing aboriginal de-mands for control of their schooling, respect for their treaty rights and recogni-tion of their language and culture.

An AFN analysis sent to chiefs last week said the status quo is “absolutely and fundamentally con-trary to treaty, inherent and human rights and must change.”

The document concluded Bill C-33 “is a constructive and necessary step.”

But some First Nations leaders don’t see it that way. They say the legisla-tion strips away their rights and puts too much control over their children’s educa-tion in the hands of the fed-eral government. THE CANADIAN PRESS

Xbox original shows comingWhen it comes to original pro-gramming, Microsoft is going to throw it at the Xbox and see what sticks.

After nearly two years since launching a studio to create new shows to be streamed on Xbox consoles, Microsoft is finally ready to serve an assorted helping of ori-ginal programming this summer for the Xbox 360 and Xbox One. However, view-ers shouldn’t expect Xbox Originals, as they’re

called, to be available the same way that content is provided on Netflix and Hulu.

“We don’t necessarily know what approach will work, and we don’t necessarily know what approach won’t work,” noted Nancy Tellem, the president of Xbox Entertainment Studios

during a recent press preview of Xbox Originals at Microsoft’s offices in Santa Monica, Calif.

Self-driving cars by 2017?Google says that cars it has programmed to drive them-selves have started to master the navigation of city streets and the challenges they bring, from jaywalkers to weaving bi-cyclists — a critical milestone for any commercially available self-driving car technology.

Despite the progress over the past year, the cars have plenty of learning to do before 2017, when the Silicon Valley tech giant hopes to get the technology to the public.

None of the traditional automakers has been so bull-

ish. Instead, they have rolled out features incrementally, in-cluding technology that brakes and accelerates in stop-and-go

traffic or keeps cars in their lanes.

“I think the Google tech-nology is great stuff. But I just don’t see a quick pathway to the market,” said David Alexan-der, a senior analyst with Navi-gant Research who specializes in autonomous vehicles.

His projection is that self-driving cars will not be com-mercial available until 2025.

Google’s self-driving cars already can navigate freeways comfortably, albeit with a driv-er ready to take control. THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Mauled eagle

Bald eagle claws off rival for foodThis bald eagle took a bit of a battering as a rival clawed his face in a fi erce airborne fi ght.

The white-headed birds of prey grappled with each other in a row over fi sh that descended into a tense battle of the fi ttest. Photographer Stan Rife, 55, watched the feathers fl y during the scrap near the Great Salt Lake, located in the northern part of the U.S. state of Utah. METRO

Photographer Stan Rife captured this image about 46 metres away from the battling birds. “I stayed at a distanceas eagles are cautious and won’t hesitate to fl y off if they spot you. Even from where I was photographing, I coulddefi nitely hear a pretty loud thud or thump as the eagles made contact.” COURTESY STAN RIFE/SOLENT NEWS

Bald-eagle facts

• Wingspan. Up to 230 cm.

• Plucky fl ock. Bald eagles have some 7,000 feathers.

• Speed. Over 56 km/h in fl ight and up to 160 km/h in a hunting dive.

• Symbol. Adopted in 1782 as U.S. national coat of arms. ‘Founding father’ Benjamin Franklin was against the move due to bird’s roguish behaviour.

Lag: It’s wayfunnier in real life

SCREENGRAB

Lag. We’ll pause for a moment while you spit out the bad taste that word leaves in your mouth. But what if lag’s effects weren’t restricted to the Internet?

Well, it might look a little like this experiment involving an Oculus Rift, a webcam, hapless volunteers, some missed dance steps and — most importantly — a broadband Internet company’s advertising dollars. If you’re going to lag IRL, you’re going to need to break a few eggs. And ruin a table tennis game. And ...(Via Umeaenergi on YouTube)

After living in the city for seven years, I’ve come to love the idea of starting a family in an urban setting. Unfortunately my boyfriend, who was actually born and raised in the city, has romantic visions of relocating to a sprawl-ing home with a large backyard, a finished basement and neighbours who actually talk to one another.

Earlier this month, the New York Times published an article about the dwindling popu-lations of North American suburbs. In the past, young men and women moved to the city for a brief period of time to attend university and start their careers before returning back to their hometowns when it came time to settle down.

Today, these migratory patterns are changing as an in-creasing number of people in their 20s and 30s are relocat-ing to urban areas and opting to stay there for good. More

and more young professionals are choos-ing to forgo the front lawns and spacious driveways of suburbia in favour of a more dynamic life, with kids, downtown.

I spent my teenage years coming of age in an idyllic lakefront suburb where al-most all of the designer homes came with their own swimming pool. I went to a “good” school populated by beautiful WASP-y teenagers who could have starred in their own reality show about moneyed suburbanites.

It wasn’t an exciting place — I spent countless hours driving along identical tree-lined residential streets to strip malls filled with fast-food chains — but it

was safe and comfortable, which are desirable qualities when you’re looking for somewhere to raise your kids.

So why are these picture-perfect peripheral towns now

failing to lure young families back from the city?The suburbs might have space and privacy, but cities

have character — and plenty of characters — that you just don’t find in the homogeneous communities that surround them. And while a congested and unpredictable downtown might not seem like the ideal place for young children, urban environments do have a distinct allure.

Cities offer walkability, mass transit, independence and a vast array of entertainment options. Families have access to museums, galleries, restaurants, street festivals, sport-ing events and theatrical productions every day of the week. I’d be willing to sacrifice some square footage if it meant giving my future children the opportunity to enjoy the unique benefits that come with living in a demograph-ically diverse and densely populated urban area.

They say the grass is always greener on the other side — except downtown, where the metaphorical grass is a slab of concrete — but I just can’t imagine moving back to the ’burbs.

Matangi. New album inspired by deity ‘who looks and sounds like a woman who goes out there and fi ghts for truth and justice’

Why Matangi?

M.I.A. says the goddess Ma-tangi is “exactly the things that we are all about today, like the fact that she carries a parrot who tweets and it represents human speech and consciousness and how repetitive it can become and the value of life. You know, we tweet certain concepts, and don’t retweet certain concepts. All of these things are connected to that goddess, so she seemed quite appropriate, and fun at the same time.”

M.I.A. performs with a hologram of Janelle Monáe. GETTY IMAGES

PATHEALYMetro World News

Earlier this month M.I.A. and Janelle Monáe sang and danced with holograms of each other while each singer performed on an opposite coast of America. Although M.I.A. says she enjoyed the experience, it’s unlikely you’ll see her do much more of this sort of thing soon.

“You have to have these mirrors and carefully pos-itioned equipment, and at the moment my shows are a bit unpredictable,” says M.I.A. “I’d want to have something pre-choreographed and worked out and I never have that type of show. I couldn’t bring the crowd up onstage if I had it.”

Does incorporating high theatrics into your shows mean you have to comprom-ise spontaneity?I like being the artist that can be like that, where it’s not so precious. I think we’re living in a time where of course there’s pressure for me to become a theatrical produc-tion like Glee or something and for my show to become a well-organized, choreo-graphed thing like a pop show.

It’s like, “The pressure’s on, bitches.” Everybody’s sort of supposed to become that thing. At least that’s what’s considered good entertain-ment. So if you’re bringing something to the table that’s more about the energy and the vibe of what’s going on that night, then it’s difficult, but I might try to figure that out and see about that.

With Matangi, you liken yourself to the Hindu god-dess who gives the album its title. Could this idea of fi nd-ing god within yourself be a trend in the collective con-sciousness of artists? Kanye West certainly explores it on the Yeezus album.I didn’t really come at it like that because the journey to do with me is using exactly

the same set of codes, but tell-ing a different story with it. It’s not a newly constructed set of codes. It’s exactly the same one as the first album and the second one, and the third one and the fourth one, whereas with Kanye, the al-bum before he says he’s Jesus is about complete excess and being a king and royalty

and money and wealth and having fur coats and flying a private jet, so the next one is a totally different concept.

But mine is more of a progression because it’s like you’re still working on the concept of the name of M.I.A. and what that stands for and people representing untouchables and people that

live in a certain demographic, and you’re still talking about fighting for things. The deity is still somebody who looks and sounds like a woman who goes out there and fights for truth and justice, speaking out and freedom of expression, all of these things which have always been a theme in my work. ... It’s not really “I am a god.” It’s kind of saying, “This thing is weird,” and I found her only because the goddess is called the same name, but the things she represents were important things 5,000 years ago, but they’re also still important today.

How did you come to know of Matangi? Was it some-thing you grew up with in your culture?It wasn’t really something that I felt that connected to. … I sort of fell upon it. Everything sort of works like that. It’s about your experi-ence and it’s about what you’re doing in the day, and the things that concern me in my life. I’m just directing my first video for Double Bubble Trouble, and even that pro-cess is exactly the same; you walk down the street, you see something and shoot it, and it goes in the video.

So I’m not supposed to ask you too much about the NFL ordeal where they’re suing over the middle fi nger on national television. Is that because you’re tired of talk-ing about it or because of the legal implications?It’s a legal thing and noth-ing’s really been sorted out so I don’t really know what to say.

M.I.A. says she resists pressure to turn her shows into “a theatrical production like Glee or something.” GETTY IMAGES

A lonely single mom (Kate Winslet) getting her groove back through the Mr. Clean ministrations of a prison escapee (Josh Brolin) is the kind of eye-rolling scenario writer/dir-ector Jason Reitman would usually mock.

And the laughs would be welcomed, not the un-intended kind that this glossy melodrama frequent-ly summons.

The two fine actors are defeated by Reitman’s screenplay, his irony-free adaptation of Joyce May-nard’s 2009 novel. It’s as overripe as the peaches that Brolin’s Frank sexily folds into the pie he bakes for Winslet’s Adele.

At no point does the film convince us that Frank is the least bit dangerous. Fatally, neither does it make us care about whether he and Adele will go from doing the rumba in the living room to the horizontal mambo in the bedroom.

Look at that hair, look how it shines on Styles...

Now that Chris Martin and Gwyneth Paltrow are consciously uncoupled, let’s all try to guess who Martin will couple with next. How about One Direction heart-throb Harry Styles?

The Coldplay frontman says he’s a huge fan of One Direction — Styles in particular. “I’m saying One Direction are brilliant, and I’m not kidding. You know why? Because their songs are really good and I don’t think that any of them are going to go solo,” he told the BBC.

Chris doesn’t just admire

their musical prowess and comradeship: He also, like all humans with a pulse, thinks Harry Styles is cute as all get out.

“He has come to a couple of our shows. I think I probably said the same thing about chemistry. I can’t remember — I was too enamoured with his haircut. I was like this: ‘I was pretty sure I was a straight guy

before.’ I was having a hot flush,” he said.

Good to know that Harry Styles’ stupid adorable floppiness works on adults who should be even less sus-ceptible than me. However, Chris Martin does have a 10-year-old daughter, so he’d better be discreet about his affection or he might find himself in a Tumblr feud with Apple.

Details of Geldof’s death may come to light as

inquest begins

A British coroner will open an inquest this week into the death of Peaches Geldof and may reveal details of what killed the 25-year-old celebrity.

Kent County Council says a brief inquest hearing will be held Thursday. The council said in a statement Monday that a senior police officer will read a statement and the cor-oner will release the results of a post-mortem investigation.

The model and TV person-

ality, daughter of Live Aid or-ganizer Bob Geldof, was found dead at her home south of London on April 7. An initial autopsy was inconclusive and toxicology tests have been carried out.

Inquests are held in Britain to determine the facts in sud-den, violent or unexplained deaths.

After the opening hearing, the inquest will be adjourned until later in the year.THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

It’s Hardy to be sure if this guy got

hitched or not

Tom Hardy is apparently trying to get adjusted to married life before actually tying the knot, as he’s been perplexing reporters re-cently by already referring to fiancée Charlotte Riley as his wife despite the fact that they haven’t actually tied the knot yet, according to Us Weekly. “Well, my wife is an actor as well, so she sort of gets it,” Hardy told the magazine at a recent event to promote his new film, Locke, in New York. “Apart from that, I’m a pain in the ass, really.” Hardy also referred to Riley as “pure” and “very kind.” The couple met while film-ing Wuthering Heights in 2009 and were engaged a year later. No wedding date has officially been set yet — assuming the event hasn’t already happened.

Spring-clean your pantry

After you clean out the bad stuff , load your pantry with healthy choices. ISTOCK

As spring begins to liven up the winter gloom, homes everywhere are getting that seasonal thorough cleaning. This year, don’t just wipe the windows: Start developing better eating habits by add-ing the pantry to your spring-cleaning list.

Registered dietitian Shar-on Richter has been assisting New Yorkers with living healthier for 10 years.

“A lot of time, people don’t realize that food’s expired,” Richter says. “[The pantry] is a great place to kind of re-

fresh, see what’s in there, and make sure that everything is current and that there are healthy options.”

Expired foods are an ob-vious target for cleaning, but making sure that the other food in the cupboard is healthy can also lead to bet-ter eating habits. Removing foods with high fructose corn syrup, hydrogenated oils and MSG should also be a spring cleaning goal.

“I always say, look at the ingredients and see what’s in there,” Richter says.

Once those bad foods are gone, healthier options can begin to take their place. Richter recommends foods like whole grain cereals and dried fruit with no added sugar. “I’m big into the raw nuts,” Richter says. “Pista-chios are great because they take a long time to eat, in-stead of just shoving a hand-ful in your mouth.”

But don’t just throw those new foods in the cabinet. Richter says placing those healthier options right up front makes healthy eating

easier. “Have those grab-and-go things right in the fore-front,” Richter says. “Put the things that might be a little

less healthy, like the cook-ies, in the back so they’re not what your eyes see.” MAX PRINZ, METRO WORLD NEWS IN NEW YORK CITY

Soft sheep’s ricotta or goat chèvre work equally well in this recipe. If you choose goat cheese, you’ll have more zing!

Pancakes are not just sweet food anymore. Think of French crepes It’s real comfort food.

1. Mix together pancake mix, ground almonds, wheat germ, garlic powder, white pepper with a whisk. Mix eggs, ricotta and milk.

2. Mix the two together while you heat a skillet.

3. Fry like pancakes on one side until bubbles form, flip

Health Solutions

Say, ‘(Sheep’s) cheeeeese’

Sheep’s and goat’s milk cheese are a staple all over the world. Canadians have a lot of exploring ahead of us.

Some of the benefits of these delicious options:

• People with dairy digestive issues tend to have an easier time getting the goodness of milk without the downsides of their intolerance.

• Milking sheep and goats have a much higher CLA (conjugated linoleic acid) amount. CLA is a good fat that is believed to help keep weight gain at a minimum.• Sheep’s milk has almost twice the calcium and pro-

tein of cow or goat milk.

• Both have unique and dis-tinct tastes that can be made into any type of cheese: soft, washed rind like brie, or aged like cheddar.

I had the chance to milk sheep and I was surprised by how clean, gentle and sweet-smelling they were.

That warm, soft smell comes from a wax that their skin produces called lanolin. Yep, the same lanolin that you see as an ingredient in your hand cream.

Small sheep and goat farms are dotted across the country, producing artisan cheeses that are sold onsite or in small boutique and farmers’ markets. Well worth seeking out.

According to fans at Joe Louis Arena, “Lucic sucks.”

The chants rained down from the sellout crowd dur-ing Game 4 last week, animos-ity built up after Milan Lucic speared Detroit Red Wings defenceman Danny DeKeyser and because of the way the Boston Bruins winger plays on the edge between the whistles and after.

Then Lucic scored the ty-ing goal, silencing the building and helping the Bruins take a commanding lead in the ser-ies they wrapped up Satur-day. Asked if the chants made scoring that goal more satisfy-ing, the Vancouver native just smiled.

“I’d be lying if I said no,” he said. “I mean, any athlete would be lying if they said it doesn’t. It was good to get that one.”

Lucic fits the bill as the perfect playoff villain, and certainly not just in Detroit. His role as a hated opponent is sure to ramp up in the second round against the Montreal Canadiens as part of an intense rivalry where tempers tend to flare.

Last month Lucic called Habs defenceman Alexei Emel-in a “chicken” for delivering a low hip check on him. This is the fourth series in the past seven years between Boston

and Montreal, and given fans’ and players’ long memories, that remark won’t be forgotten when the teams take the ice at Bell Centre for Games 3 and 4.

That’s OK with Lucic, a play-er who seems to thrive when being booed and heckled.

“That’s the beauty of sports: The fans get into it and it’s what makes it fun as well, es-pecially in a playoff series type of atmosphere,” the 25-year-old said last week in Detroit. “You can’t let it get the best of you. You want to try to get out there

Lucic came up with a hand-ful of big plays as the Bruins dispatched the Red Wings in five games. He had three goals and an assist combined with just one minor penalty.

No penalty was called on Lucic for deliberately spear-ing DeKeyser in the groin area from behind in Game 1, and he was not suspended. Instead, the NHL fined him $5,000. THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Fire lit under Flames’ new GMAfter seven years of learn-ing the ropes in Phoenix, Brad Treliving says he’s ready to return home and take the reins of an NHL team in a hockey-mad market.

The Flames announced Monday that Treliving, a former assistant gen-eral manager with the Coyotes, will take over the vacant GM spot in Calgary.

“I’m ready for this,” Treliving said.

“I know the challenges here we have ahead of us as a team ... I know the expectations of this mar-ket. I know the expecta-tions of this fan base. And I want you to know I’m prepared for this and I’m ready for this challenge.” THE CANADIAN PRESS

In a series of moves announced Monday, the Hurricanes also hired Mike Vellucci as assist-ant GM and director of hockey operations and promoted Brian Tatum to assistant general man-ager.

Malkin leads Pens in shedding JacketsEvgeni Malkin had a hat trick and the Pittsburgh Penguins almost blew a four-goal lead before beating the Columbus Blue Jackets 4-3 on Monday night to clinch their first-round playoff series in six games.

The Blue Jackets, closer to making tee times than think-ing about a Game 7, scored three times in a 4:52 span in the third period to turn up the pressure on the Penguins.

Pittsburgh awaits the win-ner of the New York-Philadel-phia series, with the Rangers leading 3-2 going into Tuesday

and Matt Niskanen had two as-sists as the Penguins became the first team in the series to score first and win — but bare-

ly. Marc-Andre Fleury made 24 saves.

Fedor Tyutin, Artem Anisimov and Nick Foligno scored late to thrill a crowd of 19,189 who stood and roared for the final four minutes.

The Penguins were hard-pressed to just fight off the up-start Blue Jackets after goalie Sergei Bobrovsky, who also had 24 saves, was pulled for an extra attacker with under two minutes left.

It was Malkin’s 10th career three-goal game. THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Remember skittish DeMar DeRozan, the youngster who was overwhelmed by his first appearance in the NBA play-offs, the guy who was going warp speed when he should have been playing at a pedes-trian level?

Seems so long ago now that he’s becoming a “superstar” in the eyes of Toronto Raptors teammate Kyle Lowry, leading a young team while learning about the playoff atmosphere and intensity as he goes along.

“I thought he went through Game 1 and experi-enced that and got that out of the way. From that, he grew and gained confidence,” To-ronto coach Dwane Casey said on a conference call Monday.

“It’s great to see DeMar grow, there’s still room for more growth on his part and he knows it, on the defensive end and places in the offen-sive areas, but where he came from he’s grown by leaps and bounds.”

Because of him, so have the Raptors.

After a sluggish start to the series, DeRozan has started to dominate it. He had back-to-back games of 30 points or more in Games 2 and 3 and led the Raptors in scoring with 24 points in a huge Game 4 that tied the best-of-seven series with the Brooklyn Nets 2-2 go-ing into Wednesday’s Game 5 at the Air Canada Centre.

“What’s a beautiful thing is there’s a lot more there with him and the same with Kyle (Lowry),” said Casey.

Lowry, who had 22 points in the Game 4 win despite being limited by a sore right knee, is another key Raptor who has grown more comfort-able with the level of play.

“Kyle has proven to the league that he’s one of the elite point guards in the league with his leadership,” said Casey. “Not only his abil-ity but his approach to the game, being a positive team-mate. All those things are part of growing with those guys but in no way are we satisfied or are they satisfied.

“They’re going to continue to grow even through this ser-

ies because it’s going to take some growth in some areas for us to be successful.”

But if the Raptors think they have assumed control of the series after Sunday’s road win, they are sadly mistaken.

“No, none whatsoever,” Casey said, discussing momen-

tum. “It’s not my first rodeo in a playoff situation. You’re not as comfortable after a win as you are down after a loss. You have to treat each game sep-arately, you approach each game separately. We have to go into the next game as if we lost the last game, that’s the

mentality we’ve got to go in with. You can’t go in too high.

“If we had lost (Sunday) night, we couldn’t go in too low. That’s the mentality we’re going into the game with. In a playoff situation, the word momentum is used too much.” TorsTar News service

Kyle Lowry vs. Nets, Game 4, 2014. A loss trailing 2-1 in the series likely would have been fatal and Lowry, who was far from 100 per cent with a gimpy right knee, put up 22 points in the Raptors’ 87-79 win.

DeMar DeRozan vs. Nets, Game 2, 2014. He was held in check in Game 1 but exploded for 17 points in the fourth quarter — he had 30 on the night — as the Raps won to even the series.

Rivers passes on chance to talk with SterlingLos Angeles Clippers coach Doc Rivers said he declined a chance to speak with owner Donald Sterling, who is alleged to have made racist comments in a recorded conversation.

“I was asked (if) I need to talk with Donald, and I passed, quite honestly,” Rivers said Monday. “I don’t think right now is the time or the place, for me, at least. I just took a pass.”

Sterling is purported to have told a woman not to bring black people to his games or associate with them.

“Yeah, I believe he said those things. But I still want to make sure,” Rivers said during a conference call. “As far as believing those things? I heard what he said. Until someone tells me differently, you usually listen to what people say. I haven’t given him his due process. I haven’t given him an opportunity to explain himself and quite honestly right now I don’t want him to. I want to wait for that further judgment.”

The coach cancelled practice Monday, a day after a 118-97 loss to the Golden State Warriors that evened their playoff series at 2-2. The associaTed Press

Alves supported for biting response Barcelona defender Dani Alves has received an outpouring of support for his response to a racist taunt during a game, while Villarreal issued a lifetime ban to the season-ticket holder who threw a banana at him.

Alves, who is black, was about to take a corner in Sunday’s 3-2 win at Villarreal’s El Madrigal Stadium when a banana landed on the pitch in front of him. The Brazil international picked it up, peeled it and ate some of it before throwing the rest aside.

“Villarreal deeply regrets and condemns the incident that happened,” Villarreal said in a state-ment on Monday. “The club has already identi-fied the (culprit) and has decided to withdraw his season tickets, perma-nently.” The associaTed Press

Aries March 21 - April 20 You will be quick off the mark both physically and mentally today, especially if you see a chance to make some money.

Gemini May 22 - June 21 You are paying far too much attention to what other people are saying and not enough to what your heart is telling you. You just need follow your own inner voice.

Libra Sept. 24 - Oct. 23 There is no point arguing with people who refuse to see sense. It may be tempting to show them up with your knowledge but why bother?

Pisces Feb. 20 - March 20 The message of the stars today is that you need to stop wasting time on so many irrelevant activities. Cut back on the partying and all those unnecessary commitments. SALLY BROMPTON
